    Technically there was a third Cobra also built in the US called the Dayton coupe that was a stretched 427 car with a totally new enclosed aluminum body that made it very aerodynamic. The Daytona was good for 200 mph, an improvement over the open roadsters which got loose above 145 mph.

    Of the six Daytona Coupes built, only the original prototype was made by Shelby in the U.S. The remaining chassis were built by AC with the final assembly completed in Italy. Cobra name was officially used again starting with the 1968 GT 350 and GT 500. Prior to that the 65 and 66 Shelby GT 350 and 67 GT 350 and GT 500 had Cobra badges but were never officially "Cobras". Of course now Cobra has been used in lot of Shelby branded vehicles.

    Shack,
    You are right. I forgot that Shelby sent the coupe plans to Italy for fabrication and the Italians changed the roofline to make the coupe que bella. Their change altered the airflow so the Shelby team added the rear spoiler to compensate.

    Last I checked this was the "Post a picture... any picture" thread, not the "Only post pictures that maximillian likes" thread. If I actually used my ignore list, you would be on there maximillian. Your whining, threats and actions on this thread are just pathetic.

    You are correct, but my point is that NO one likes his photos... unless you want to admit to something? BTW, you sound like you need a hug.

    Back on topic...

    Attachment not found.

    The funny thing about that photo - the background set sure looks to me, for all the world, like the area behind the dining table on the (original) Dick Van **** show. I'm guessin' Rob Petrie was flippin' Laura off. Maybe Laura decapitated Rob, and put Fred's head on his lifeless, but sweater-clad body instead. Always figured she was a housewife on the edge...

    Nope - not your post; there was a spam post... some folks like to report that they report a post after they've reported it (as spam). Personally, I just report 'em... either way, the management deals with 'em.
